About

Soon after arriving for your much awaited vacation, your group has taken a cab but realize the driver is not taking you to the hotel.  You are hand-cuffed and taken to an unknown location.  You overheard the kidnappers say your group will be held in the back room of a store and they will be back in one hour to transport your group.  The front of their store is where the kidnappers sell items they have stolen from their victims. This isn't the first time they have kidnapped and there have been many others held here before.  Using the clues others left behind, you must escape within the hour before the kidnappers return.

Important Notices

  • Our games are recommended for ages 12 and up. Children ages 4-17 are permitted in the facility and can participate, but must have their own ticket and be accompanied by a paying adult. Although the rooms are not "scary" and do have appropriate content, the complexity of puzzles could be too difficult. Liability waivers must be signed by a parent for any minor child participating.
  • Plan to arrive 10 minutes prior to your booking time for check in, and plan to stay 5 minutes after your game for debrief and photos. We keep a strict booking schedule, so if you arrive late, you may not receive the full time in your room.
  • We provide free lockers in our facility for your belongings while you are participating in the escape rooms, if you choose. It's best to book your game in advance through our website.
  • You may take your phone in the room with you, but you won't need it. We ask that no photos or videos be taken to help keep the integrity of our rooms for new incoming players. But you can take pictures in our lobby photo area.
